Sunbar ◊ 2007-03-17 11:30	On closer inspection and from seeing other pictures of the 'Oxford' taxi I am now certain this is an Austin FX3. (A more rounded rear roof) The two-tone paintwork and slightly wrong aspect ratio are confusing but the rear is as shown here. /vehicle_43338-Austin-FX3.html The two-tone paint is similar to here /vehicle_27493-Austin-FX3.html
